Description: Galectin-3 is a member of the beta-galactosidase-binding lectin family. It is associated with cell growth, adhesion, inflammation, mRNA processing, and apoptosis. Aberrant expression of Galectin-3 is related to malignant transformation and metastasis in carcinomas of the breast, colon and thyroid. Galectin-3 reactivity can be seen in the nucleus of neutrophils, vascular endothelium, carcinomas of the colon, breast, and thyroid. Galectin-3 may be useful in the differentiation of benign and malignant thyroid neoplasms.Galectin-3 may also be useful in the identification of certain liver disorders.
Immunogen: A portion of amino acids 150-200 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for the Galectin 3 antibody.
Storage: Aliquot the Galectin 3 antibody and store frozen at -20 °C or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
